Brunel’s SS Great Britain site to be renamed as 'Bristol Dockyards' when revamped museum launches in July
The Bristol site where the steamship (SS) Great Britain is docked will be changing its name to Bristol Dockyards, ahead of the re-opening of the revamped and expanded museum in July. The new name is intended to reflect the long-term ambition of the SS Great Britain Trust, the charity that runs the site, to transform the attraction into a broader cultural and learning campus encompassing the adjacent Great Western and Albion dockyards. A statement from the organisation in early June explained that: “The steamship Great Britain remains at the heart of our charity's purpose and all the work that we deliver.
